It’s ideal for residential and commercial installations where aesthetics matter as much as performance.
• Durable steel construction: Crafted from sturdy steel, the IL5-TURFR-WS23 provides reliable support for a variety of equipment—racks, panels, and modules—while maintaining structural integrity through frequent access and service.
• Flexible width options within the L5 Series: While this model is 23" wide and 1 bay, the L5 Series is available in three widths to accommodate different equipment footprints and rack configurations, enabling scalable solutions for evolving AV/IT needs.
